I hate being that guy, but I really am gonna hate the day when we've come to rely so heavily on FSR/DLSS, that one day, a dev is flat out not gonna bother with it, or not implement it proper, and then we're gonna have to rely on pure brute force, and I don't see the cards being there for that by that time (because Nvidia at this point is always using DLSSS metrics as their "true power", not actual raw computational power like we've been doing since the 80's). 

I think the day that happens, is the day I'm prob gonna leave gaming for good, forever, because ain't nothing like regressing and relying on a band-aid, that dulls and smashes your faith in humanity (like how I've lost a portion of that faith in science thanks to the dumbass that is Musk). 

Meh I don't think it will be that bad. I think Nvidia/AMD/Intel will continue to peruse raw power but either the performance uplift won't be as great as previous generations or the cost of the GPUs will be too expensive. It's kind of like how cars went from simple and cheap to complex and expensive. Plus we have always had some devs that has had shit optimization so that wouldn't be anything new. A brand new honda civic 15 years ago costed like $14k. These days a base honda civic starts at $25k. Hell my 2017 crv got rear ended a couple years back and it didn't look too bad in terms of visual damage but the repair cost was $3500 cause it apparently damaged the side radar. The insurance covered it of course but the point is that modern tech whether it be in computers or cars or whatever is simply getting more and more costly as they continue to add in more and more features.

Plus the funny thing is that in my experience, when there's issues with the image... Because of all the shitty effects the devs put in, it's hard to tell if the issue is caused by DLSS or some shat visual style the devs think is good. I have had a few instances in cyberpunk where something looked off so I turned off DLSS and restarted the game and... It still looked off.
